Surely, there were few surprises for AFC fans as the Colts prevailed beating the New York Jets 30-17, but give the Jets credit. They played a strong first half, but despite leading at halftime, a late score before time ran out was a tip off for things to come as Peyton Manning showed he was tuned up and ready to pick the Jets superb defense to pieces.

It took a field goal in overtime for the New Orleans Saints to finish the Minnesota Vikings 31-28, but getting there was quite a journey. Outside of the Big Easy, many fans will argue the Brett Favre's offense lost the game more than the Saints truly winning the game. Through out the game, we saw some of the most awkward and amateurish fumbles this side of a local beer league's play, but perhaps the whole Vikings season and Brett Favre's comeback season will come down to a late 4th quarter interception.
We'll have more to say about the Super Bowl as the big event approaches, but for right now, it's hard not to imagine a Colts victory. Peyton Manning is on the march.
